What kind of guitar was Rita Hayworth playing in “Gilda?”
I just watched “Gilda” from 1946 and I snapped three photos during the scene where she (cough cough) “plays” guitar.
Any thoughts on the make and model shown here? The pictures are not super sharp; the live TV picture was fairly pixelated. IMG_7872.jpg IMG_7871.jpg IMG_7870.jpg

To me it looks like a black Gibson L-00 with the headstock logo painted over or masked somehow.

……………. Whatever was in the prop room at the time. GREAT movie, by the way. PS - 320003 G chord?

The voicing she's using in the 3rd picture is interesting, while in the middle picture, it looks like a cowboy G chord is her choice. Definitely looks like she wouldn't like a 1 11/16" neck. I can't see bridge pins she's using. Could it be a pinless bridge? Historically, she must be using Monel strings. Could the fretboard be Richlite? If so, that indicates that she's not a real player. She should really try a casein pick someday too.

It is funny that in the old days, the Gibson logo is always masked. No other brand was covered.
After noticing that in the Elvis movie, Viva Las Vegas (J-45 on the diving board), I started watching for it on all old movies. You can see Fender and other brands, but Gibson is always covered . Wonder why that was?
